World War One Symphony Performed With Holograms

Weekend

Available for over a year

Holograms are something you'd expect to see in Star Trek. But what about the stage, for a production on World War One? Composer Adam Donen's Symphony to a Lost Generation explores the trauma of the First World War - with music, dance, theatre, all done through holograms. It's the world's first full-length holographic production. Weekend's Anu Anand asked Adam Donen why he chose to use holograms.
